Most of my plants are at least 3 feet tall. I pinched them so much because they had a ways to go but were flowering earlier than i would have liked. Just trying to increase flower count. With 7o plants, its going to be quite the workload when the time comes. I wish i would've had some bloom...
Thats a relief! I dont mind an indoor jungle :) The good news is that all the hardcore pinching is paying off. Most of the plants have at least 60 flowers. I counted 150 on one plant though.
Lol I'm done pinching now. I got carried away wanting monster plants. Th3 good news is that most of the plants have 30+ flowering sites :) If they dont mature outdoors I will bring the jungle indoors.
I fed with 16-16-16 the other day. Its all I had. I'll get a flower fertilizer. What am I...
My plants are all so big! Ive been pinching flowers this whole time to encourage upward growth. Ive let most of them flower staring last week. I guess i wasn't paying attention to how long the pods take to ripen though. Im concerned that they won't have enough time to mature before growing...

Can anyone offer any pointers for me? This is my first year growing. I am in the pacific northwest and temps are very high lately. Our season isn't really over until September, if history is a good indicator these days.. I want to let these guys grow as tall as they can before pollinating. I'd...
Here are my babies today! I got rid of half of them, now I have 60. A lot of these have started flowering but I keep pinching them back. I want to let them continue to grow up and out. I will let them flower in a month or so. Since there are so many, and so close together, I will probably end up...
Thanks for the sympathetic post pwb. Are anuum more suscapable to this based on watering requirements? I do have a fan in the grow space. I'm working in there now so maybe I'll pot then up first. 35 more to go. A head start on the weekend is good.
The pots have Holes. I usually water my plants not very deeply. With these plants I'm watering less to make sure they aren't remaining wet. They are probably due for potting up so i will check the soil as i pot up. Weird. I've never seeN this problem before.
Three Fresno are affected. The other 147 plants are not showing these symptoms. These fresno are the only ones of this variety. I am growing some 25 other variety. They are all in containers. These are in 4" plastic while the others are in a mix of 4" and one gallon. All are plastic though...
Really? According to the what i just read about it, that seems to make sense. However, i feel I've been watering these plants the same as the rest. The ones that dry out before watering again only wilt and wither. The same soil mix Was used for All my current peppers. Does this species react...
This has bothered me for a few weeks. I can't figure out what is going on here. My own research brings me to a dead end. The problem affects only the Fresno plants. These are three of 150 pepper plants. Seeds were taken from store bought chilis. It does seem that the purchased jalapenos are...
Been a while since I updated! Lots has been happening here. The indoor garden is growing rapidly and taking up more and more of my time. I've got some new additions and some updates on old favorites.
We had a problem with over nutrification on a lot of these peppers. The compost in the soil...
Oh maybe I used too much fert liquid or didn't dilute enough. I will flush it out tomorrow and see what happens in the next week. Regarding the compost, I used some in my soil mix. The fish fert was an additional supplement I used only once as per someone else recommendation.
I read that the soil could be flushed with water til it runs clear to remove fertilizers. I can try that but I did use compost. Not sure if a flush will help that. They are getting pretty big though. Maybe transplanting them to one gallons with some inert soil would help? Is waiting it out...
How can i amend the overfertilization?
I'm not growing peyote actually. Unfortunately it is illegal here. Maybe one day though. San pedro is active though. I hope to one day start a nursery specializing in sacred and magical plants. I'm preparing for a large grafting project to grow lots of...
Got problems! Anyone know what is going on here? Some leaves are puckering, becoming translucent and becoming necrotic in areas before falling off. It hasn't affected the new grow in a lot of them but it is starting to. I suspect nutrient deficiency or overfertilization. The pest problem seems...
